DO YOUR HOMEWORK

Residential Roofing is amongst the top complaints with the Better Business Bureau.  Check the BBB at www.bbb.org/ to see if there is any complaint activity on the company you are considering or if the "company" even exists.  Ask for references.  Any legitimate roofer should have 100's they could send you to in your area.  Most importantly ask around.  Good news travels fast and bad news travels even faster!  You will be surprised what type of information you will find when you simply ask around about different contractors.
